Microsoft makes Marketplace changes: No more Zune apps and Windows Phone 7.5 Mango update now essential
Windows Phone users will soon no longer be able to buy apps for their device from the Zune PC software.
It's the first of two changes Microsoft is implementing, the second being that to buy any new apps, or to update existing ones, your device must be running on Windows Phone 7.5 Mango.
Apps will still be available to download from the Windows Marketplace both on a phone and via the web.
However, Microsoft is already in the process of removing the Windows apps options from Zune, though the Zune HD app store will remain open.
Whereas the retirement of Zune won't affect the consumer per se, users will need to ensure they have updated their handset to Windows Phone 7.5 Mango by plugging their device into their computer.
Microsoft says it is making the upgrade necessary in a bid to improve its Marketplace, which now has over 80,000 apps, as well as making it more secure.
Windows Phone 8 Apollo is expected to begin being rolled out in October of this year, but as to whether current handsets will be upgradeable remains a point of uncertainty.
What do you think to Microsoft's changes to its Marketplace? Let us know your thoughts.

01 Jul 2014
By Naomi Rainey
MARKS & SPENCER has expanded the role of its CFO Alan Stewart to include oversight of its property assets.
The change comes as the company reshuffles its divisional executive roles following the departure of its international director. This will see its UK and international businesses represented at board level for the first time, M&S said.
In addition to his responsibilities relating to financial asset management, Stewart manage the group's property holdings. Chief executive Marc Bolland's executive assistant Hugo Adams has also been appointed property director, reporting to Stewart.
Stewart has served as M&S CFO since October 2010, having previously worked as CEO at high-street travel agents Thomas Cook UK, group CFO of Thomas Cook Holdings and group FD of WH Smith. He was recently appointed to drink-maker Diageo's audit, nomination and remuneration committees as a non-executive director.
Alongside Stewart's increased remit, executive director, multi-channel Laura Wade-Gery will assume responsibility for UK retail, while executive director, marketing & business development Patrick Bousquet-Chavanne will oversee the company's international business.
Current international director Jan Heere has left the company and will be replaced by business development director, international Costas Antimissaris.
Wade-Gery, Bousquet-Chavanne, executive director for food, Steve Rowe and executive director for general merchandise John Dixon will be accountable for operating profit in their respective trading areas.
Chief executive Bolland said M&S has "worked hard" to build itself as an international, multi-channel retailer that meets the needs of future retail developments. "We now have the right infrastructure in place to take our business forward, and as we enter the next phase of our plan, we need to make sure our team structures and internal processes allow us to move with pace, simplicity and speed," he said.
The changes will be reflected in "internal realignment" of responsibilities throughout the business, focusing on "increased spans of control, streamlined processes and a more collaborative way of working", the company added.
M&S has struggled with falling performance in recent years, with the 130-year-old retailer's profits dropping by 4% to £623m in the last financial year. This was largely attributed to a 1.4% fall in like-for-like sales of general merchandise, including clothing, while like-for-like food sales climbed by 1.7%.

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bears placed center Will Montgomery on injured reserve with a fractured fibula, the team announced Tuesday.
Montgomery suffered the injury on the third play of Sunday's 22-20 victory over the Raiders.
The Bears signed Montgomery to a one-year contract in April because of his familiarity with head coach John Fox and offensive coordinator Adam Gase. Montgomery previously played under Fox in Carolina (2006) and Denver (2014).
The 32-year-old veteran has appeared in 110 games, with 75 career starts. Montgomery also played with the New York Jets (2007-08) and in Washington (2008-13).
On Sunday, the Bears replaced Montgomery at center with left guard Matt Slauson, who is a candidate to permanently take over the position. The Bears also invested a third-round draft pick this year in Oregon center Hroniss Grasu, but the rookie has been a healthy scratch in the first month of the season.
"I thought [Slauson] was tremendous," Fox said. "That early in the game -- I think it as about the third play that Will went out -- it's a two-man switch. Typically in this league, you go in with seven linemen, and even Patrick Omameh moving over to left guard and Matt going to center, it wasn't all hunky-dory. But I thought they didn't panic and just kept swinging the sword and did pretty well."
The club's new center will be tested Sunday when Chicago travels to Arrowhead Stadium to take on Kansas City.

I have some software under svn version control. It consists of sources that I want under version control and some build and output files which I have not added to svn.
When I submit a new revision I want to make sure that it is working for anyone who checks it out. For example I could have forgot to svn-add some important file that I newly created and other files use now. Since I have the file in my working directory everything works fine for me but not for someone checking out the new revision.
I am not sure if there is a svn command to delete all my local files that are not under version control but in case there is, deleting these files is not an option.
If anyone understands my problem is there an easy way to overcome it?
(The best I could come up with is to check out the last revision in a temporary directory create a patch with svn diff apply it to the temporary directory and see if it works)
Following hmjd's suggestion to check for the list all files not under version control combined with setting consistent svn:ignore as suggested by Dialecticus, I should be save not to be missing any important file in my commit I guess.
Thanks for all the input.

Berlin 2013: Joseph Fiennes, Morena Baccarin Set to Star in 'The Unholy' (Exclusive)
Ross Katz is directing the supernatural thriller for Gold Circle Entertainment.
Ross Katz is set to direct Joseph Fiennes and Morena Baccarin in Gold Circle Entertainment's The Unholy.
Good Universe will shop the supernatural thriller to buyers at the European Film Market in Berlin, which gets underway later this week. Principal photography is set to start in the spring.
PHOTOS: European Film Market 2013: 10 Titles to Track in Berlin
Katz will direct from a script written by E.L. Katz, based on an original idea by Jaume Balaguero and Paco Plaza (creators of the [REC] franchise).
Inspired by actual scientific research that suggests evil may live within our very own genetic code, The Unholy follows a group of cutting-edge scientists who believe they can link evil to a specific human gene. When they are recruited by the Vatican to spearhead a new global initiative to examine candidates for official exorcisms, supernatural forces threaten both faith and science in a battle of good versus evil.
Gold Circle's Paul Brooks is producing. Gold Circle COO Scott Niemeyer and Guy Danella are executive producing alongside Adrian Guerra, Jaume Balaguero and Paco Plaza.
Fiennes (Shakespeare in Love, Elizabeth) was most recently a regular on FX and Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story: Asylum.
Baccarin, from Joss Whedon's Firefly and Serenity, is currently a regular on Showtime's award-winning hit series Homeland.
Katz's directing credits include the award-winning HBO film Taking Chance. He also produced Lost in Translation and In the Bedroom.
Fiennes is repped by WME and Anonymous Content; Baccarin is repped by UTA and Seven Summits. Ross Katz is repped by CAA and Management 360; and E.L. Katz is repped by Gersh and Generate.

The folks at the Boston City Archives wonder if you can place this photo. See it larger.
The T
Just got this e-mail from Keolis regarding additional trains:
Firefighters shut South Station on the Red Line and ordered the power off in both directions on the line until they could find and then extinguish what turned out to be a small trash fire on the tracks about halfway between South Station and Downtown Crossing.
BFD gave the T permission to restore power around 4:15 p.m.
The fire sent smoke into both stations.
The MBTA reports that for the first time since Jan. 26 - the night before the first blizzard - the Orange Line has its regular fleet of 96 Orange Line cars, in 16 trains, running for the evening commute.
Interim T General Manager Frank DePaola credited "the skilled machinists and repair persons who have been working around the clock at the Wellington maintenance facility."
Riders on the Providence Line lost at commuter-rail roulette big time this morning. A train got to Mansfield and passed to the other side - but not before riders got to sit on it for 45 minutes waiting for a pusher train that itself gave up the ghost - although it turned out it was only mostly dead and so it slogged into Mansfield with its own full complement of exasperated riders and little space in which to cram the passengers from the completely dead train, which, as soon as it was emptied, revived just enough to head back to Providence.
Measured in terms of passenger trips and customer satisfaction, the MBTA's Late Night Service Pilot Program is a success. Measured simply in dollars and cents, however, it's a failure, expected to run a $10.7 million deficit during its first year. If things don't change, it seems likely the service will be cut back, or canceled entirely.
Blue Mass. Group ponders the seeming oddity of a Republican governor wanting to increase spending on our broken public-transportation system while Democratic leaders in the House, are, at best, cool to the idea.
You know what's "crazy"? What's crazy is that the T doesn't work, and that the legislature doesn't really seem to care. That's crazy. DeLeo, Mariano and the rest of them can natter on all they want about a long-term maintenance plan and the T structure "and whatnot," blah blah blah. But meanwhile, maybe somebody should make sure that the trains don't catch fire.
Around 11 a.m., by a freight train on the Franklin Line, just past the Norwood Central station. The woman, in her 50s, was taken to the nearby Norwood Hospital in serious condition, Transit Police report.
The folks at the Boston City Archives wonder if you can place this photo. See it larger.
Because that allegedly improved commuter-rail service this morning still means that trains are roaring into Roslindale completely full, so they can't stop and they won't stop.
Alert viewer Codeman38 noticed something unusual at :51 in the trailer for the newest CSI show - the T train shown above (that an FBI agent is trying to jump on it as it leaves the station is, of course, not at all odd).
But it doesn't stop there: In the alternaverse in which CSI leader Patricia Arquette explores intersectionality, they've also replaced the new MBTA system map with an even newer map in which the Green Line becomes the Blue Line, the Blue Line becomes the Purple Line and the Red Line, well, stays the Red Line, but all with the same stops you've come to know and love. The Orange Line? It turns into the Yellow Line, running between Rockwater and Cabrerra, with stops such as Mandora and San Jacomo.
Curt Nickisch phototographed this poor hawk unable to figure a way out of Alewife station around 7:30 p.m. The Animal Rescue League reports a happy ending to this tale:
Got word that the hawk was caught and moved outside.
The Globe reports Paul Barrett, the guy Charlie Baker named to head up the inquiry into the MBTA, then went on vacation on Jamaica, quit after it started asking him about his personal financial problems. The board was supposed to report back on the T by the end of March.
The Herald reports an escalator at Davis Square ripped a man's pants clear off. Fortunately, the Herald adds, he stayed cool - and had the foresight to wear blue gym shorts.
Keolis CEO Bernard Tabary, fresh off a plane from France and a meeting with the governor, today apologized for abysmal post-snow service and said that while the company is scheduling March 30 for a full restoration of service, it's going to try to get things back to normal before that.
But, his people assure the Globe, they have telephones down there, and it's not like the commission doesn't have an entire month to report back to the governor.
The Herald reports that Highway chief Frank DePaola will take over from Beverly Scott at the embattled MBTA until a permanent general manager is named. Scott said she would resign in April, but DePaola's appointment starts next week.
Station and intersection all blocked up. Medical emergency.

Jennings was in a giving mood off the court last season with the Bucks but Sanders says that's where it ended.
After his departure from the Milwaukee Bucks, point guard BRANDON JENNINGS had a few parting words for his former teammates. Looking at the revamped front court line-up with his new team in Detroit, Jennings said that he's now playing with better bigs with the Pistons. Bucks big LARRY SANDERS was asked about Jennings comment at Monday's Media Day and had the following response:
"He has to pass it to them first."
Well alrighty then. Shot fired, shot returned!
The Pistons do appear to have better bigs with newly acquired Josh Smith joining Charlie Venezuela and Andre Drummond in the Detroit front court. But Sanders' inference that Jennings is a ball hog sort of shatters that Pistons advantage…especially since its true! Lol Bigs can't hurt you if the little guys don't get them the ball.
Big Bucks: Sanders does have formidable front court mates in Henson and Antetokounmpo. They're young though.
Think I'll add this Jennings-Sanders beef to my rivalry spotlight list for the upcoming NBA season. Bucks at Pistons, Monday, November 25. Save the date.

When tau proteins interact with the lipid membrane, they can damage the structure of the membrane, "which can possibly make the membranes 'leaky' and cause neurons to die," Chi explains. "There has been much uncertainty about what causes neurodegeneration in these diseases, but now the field is converging on the idea that neuronal death in Alzheimer's disease is caused by the proteins acquiring toxicity as they aggregate."
The researchers suggests that compounds that prevent the proteins from interacting with the lipid membrane or protect the membrane from being disrupted could offer hope to Alzheimer's patients. "We are currently looking at how naturally occurring flavonoids [antioxidants found in plants] can protect the cells from protein aggregate-induced toxicity and have found that they reduce protein interaction with membranes," Chi says.

This is bullshit. I bought mine at Best Buy, on release day, and I get SCREWED OVER.
Why should those who bought on Amazon get complete replacement sets, when others only get certain discs replaced? They're now talking about fixing other problems - what if those are on discs that are not being replaced.
I don't understand what the big deal is myself. I got mine at Best Buy too, and from what I can tell the rest of the set is pretty much...
I think the issue for some, myself included, is that we shelled out the cash to support CBS right out the gate...and all of the missing footage that had either been upconverted or replaced with CGI has been found and made its way into later episodes in the set where the effects were reused. Speaking for myself, I paid for the set with the understanding that this would be the finalized, definitive version. If it isn't and others are getting a full set replacement, then I would hope to have that same courtesy. I don't want to have to re-buy the set to get the fully corrected eoisodes.
You assume that the "minor issues" that Paramount keeps referring to are issues with the remastering. Paramount hasn't said anything about correcting "mistakes" that the fans have noticed.

CT's Warner Theatre Screens Encore of The Met: LIVE IN HD's LA TRAVIATA, 5/26
On Saturday, May 26 at 1pm, the Warner Theatre will present Verdi's La Traviata, an encore presentation from The Met: Live in HD.
Verdi's La Traviata survived a notoriously unsuccessful opening night to become one of the best-loved operas in the repertoire. The title role of the "fallen woman" has captured the imagination of audiences and performers alike with its exhaustible vocal and dramatic possibilities and challenges. Violetta is considered a pinnacle of the soprano repertoire.
Natalie Dessay will put on the red dress in Willy Decker's stunning production, in her first Violetta at the Met. Matthew Polenzani sings Alfredo, Dmitri Hvorostovsky is Germont, and Principal Guest Conductor Fabio Luisi is on the podium.
There will be a complimentary pre-broadcast lecture for opera patrons from 11 to 11:45am.
Tickets for this event are $20, $18 for seniors and students and $10 for children 13 & under. To purchase tickets you can call the Warner box office at 860-489-7180 or go online to www.warnertheatre.org/metopera.htm.
Built by Warner Brothers Studios and opened in 1931 as a movie palace (1,772 seats), the Warner Theatre was described then as "Connecticut's Most Beautiful Theatre." Damaged extensively in a flood, the Warner was slated for demolition in the early 1980s until the non-profit Northwest Connecticut Association for the Arts (NCAA) was founded and purchased the theatre. The Warner reopened as a performing arts center in 1983, and restoration of the main lobbies and auditorium was completed in November 2002. In 2008, the new 50,000 square foot Carole and Ray Neag Performing Arts Center, which houses a 300 seat Studio Theatre, 200 seat restaurant and expansive school for the arts, was completed. Today, the Warner is in operation year-round with more than 160 performances and 100,000 patrons passing through its doors each season. Over 10,000 students, pre K-adult, participate in arts education programs and classes. NCAA's mission is to preserve the Warner Theatre as an historic landmark, enhance its reputation as a center of artistic excellence and a focal point of community involvement, and satisfy the diverse cultural needs of the region.

PITTSBURGH -- The Steelers will celebrate their Super Bowl
victory with a parade through downtown Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
The parade will begin at 11 a.m. at Mellon Arena, the home of the Pittsburgh Penguins. It will end at Point State Park, across the river from Heinz Field.
The Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks 21-10 on Sunday for their fifth Super Bowl championship since the team was founded in 1933.
Mayor Bob O'Connor's office said that Steelers players, coaches and owners will participate in the parade.
"Tomorrow's parade will be a great opportunity for this region
to honor this amazing team and the [Dan] Rooney family for bringing
the Vince Lombardi trophy back to the City of Champions,"
Allegheny county executive Dan Onorato said.
If the pep rallies of the last two weeks are any indication, thousands of Steelers fans are likely to attend. Two large pep rallies, including one at Heinz Field, were held leading up to the Super Bowl in Detroit.
For a while at least, Pittsburgh can forget the tough times. Chief among the city's troubles is that it was declared a distressed municipality two years ago, triggering state oversight of its finances. The region's political and economic leaders hope to capitalize on its recent return to championship status.
The city will have plenty of other moments in the spotlight. In July, PNC Park hosts baseball's All-Star Game. Then, golf's U.S. Open will be played in nearby Oakmont in 2007, and the city celebrates its 250th anniversary in 2008.
Richard Lapchick, a sports sociologist who runs the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at the University of Central Florida, agreed with local leaders that the city can expect a bounce.
"I think that anytime a victory of this magnitude comes to a city like Pittsburgh, it's got to have a tremendous bounce not only for the people in Pittsburgh, but also people around the country to take a look at Pittsburgh in a different light," Lapchick said. "People who might not have thought about Pittsburgh are going to take a look at Pittsburgh."

Day Zero 2008 | Movie Watchlist
Not to be confused with Ben Coccio's ZERO DAY (2003), which examines the events leading up to a Columbine-style school massacre, this shallow, navel-gazing film about three young men coming to terms with the reality of being drafted to fight in Iraq is agonizingly trivial despite strong performances from leads Chris Klein, Elijah Wood and Jon Bernthal.
Set in a near future in which the draft has been reinstated, director Bryan Gunnar Cole and screenwriter Rob Malkani's film follows three friends, all of whom met as students at NYC's elite Stuyvesant public high school, as they deal with the implications of having been drafted. Novelist Aaron Fellner (Wood) is frankly terrified; he's a skinny, neurotic geek who worried that he'll be the first to die because his fellow grunts just won't like him. Between visits to his bored therapist (Ally Sheedy) of seven years, he makes a list of 10 things he wants to do — including pick up a woman at a bar, go to a peepshow and get a tattoo — before reporting for duty, and then he sets about trying to do them all. Privileged George Rifkin (Klein), a sleek corporate lawyer who's just made partner, appeals to his politically connected father to get him out of serving; in addition to his fears of disrupting his career, he's loath to leave his wife (Ginnifer Goodwin, of TV's Big Love), a cancer survivor who just passed the momentous five-year survival mark. James Dixon (Bernthal) is the only one who wants to serve; the smart but damaged product of a violent, fractured family and the guy who always pulled his friends' ashes out of the fire, Dixon believes that 9/11 was a wake-up call to the pampered progeny of 21st-century America: If they value their freedoms, he says, they should be willing to fight and even die for them.
Aimed at post-Vietnam generations who grew up free of the shadow of the selective service, Malkani's simplistic "what if?" screenplay is designed to provoke debate of the shallowest kind: How would you feel if you were drafted? Well, bad, right? After all, no one ever wants to be shipped overseas to kill and/or die. The film's relentless focus on the personal shortchanges the larger issues and ultimately reduces Fellner, Rifkin and Dixon to sociopolitical stereotypes whose troubles don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. And that's a shame, because the actors — especially Klein and Bernthal — deliver startlingly powerful performances as young men suspended between extended adolescence and real adulthood making what may be the most important decision of their lives.

This hotel needs to be moved to the morcote category since it is there and not in lugano. We stayed here a couple of days ago. Great location. Great pool. Nice folks at the restaurant. Terrible service at the hotel. No one to bring bags up (no elevator), and not terribly pleasant housekeeping. But restaurant staff is nice, front desk is fine, hotel is in great location and our room was decent. No air conditioning so make sure there is a fan in the room. I don't regret the high prices we paid since we had a great time there.

Item of the Day: B Brian Atwood
Happy National Handbag Day!
Yes, today's the day that women are supposed to pay homage to their handbags by strutting out their favorites and maybe post a photo of them on Instagram, Twitter etc. with the tag #NationalHandbagDay.
It's tough going in our opinion though to narrow down favorites today (or any other day for that matter). Lately we've been rekindling our love affair with the backpack…as in the case of this Juliette metallic, snake-embossed leather backpack from B Brian Atwood.
The adjustable straps, metal bar and tassel at flap along with the outside snap pocket, one inside zip pocket and one inside open pocket make it a shinning example of what a busy city gal might tote.
Whatever your fav of the day is, don't forget to share it with the world in celebration of National Handbag Day.

Before I Go To Sleep (original 2011; edition 2012)
by S J Watson
Chris wakes up every morning not knowing who she is. Psychological thriller. Went on a bit to long and saw ending coming.
I really enjoyed this book. Along the lines of many of the bestsellers such as Gone Girl and The Girl on The Train, this suspenseful thriller keeps you guessing at every turn. The writing has a tendency to be repetitive occasionally, mostly because of the way the plot is, having a main character with memory loss and regaining memories based on a diary, therefore it was pretty easy to overlook after a while. The ending was perfect for the story and let the reader make the conclusion that worked best for them. A highly suggested read.
A woman, unable to form new memories, has only a secret journal to remind her of who she is, and that the people in her life may not be who they seem.
Read all my reviews on http://urlphantomhive.booklikes.com
This was my next-to/under my bed book for quite some time, you know, for when my eReader suddenly stops working and I want to have something else easily picked up to read in bed. Only normally, I usually get invested in the book so much that it soon moves on to be my actual books. Not this time (this might be because it was a period with - luckily - very little eReader problems). However, this did cause Before I Go To Sleep to be 'currently reading' for a very long time. Until I told myself, it's ridiculous you're reading 10 books at a time. Go finish some first!
And so I finally finished it. Christine wakes up every morning not knowing where she is. Her memory is literally broken, but when she starts writing (and constantly reading) a diary, things get a little better. Or do they?
Like I said before, I never got really invested into the story. It was still quite enjoyable, but it was very easy to put it aside. I didn't think the story was that original (it reminded me of the film 50 First Dates) and I didn't particularly liked the main character Christine. The ending I'd guessed about halfway through the end.
It was not as special as I thought it would be, but it was a fast read.
This novel is the story of Christine, a woman suffering from a form of amnesia that prevents her from forming any new memories. She remembers what happens in a single day, but each night, when she goes to sleep, her entire memory is swept clean of everything that happened that day. She wakes up in bed next to a man who explains, day after day, that he is her husband and that she has lost her memory due to a hit and run accident many years earlier. She has some occasional flashes of memory and when they begin to contradict what her husband is telling her, the mystery begins.
This book was on some list of the Best of 2011. I am not sure I would consider it one of the best, but I thoroughly enjoyed the story. It was a page turner that at times made me scared as I was reading.
I couldn't put this one down & didn't guess the ending...which is rare for me. It's not the most beautifully written story but it kept me guessing so it gets 4 stars.
A nice quick thriller. 3.5 stars.
Christine does not remember most of her life. Every morning she wakes up next to a stranger who tells her he is her husband, Ben. Every day he explains to he that she has amnesia. And every night, when she sleeps, she forgets everything that happened that day, too. But then, at the urging of a doctor, she begins to keep a secret journal that provides her with an artificial memory of recent days. And sometime during those days, she's scrawled "Don't trust Ben" in the front of the journal.
It's a fantastic setup for novel, the kind that promises creepy, slowly revealed secrets and deep emotional tension. Plus, the cover is plastered with blurbs praising how heart-stopping and nerve-jangling and page-turning it is. So I went into it looking to have my heart stopped and my nerves jangled, and such, and... it kind of didn't happen.
The writing isn't great, but that wasn't really the problem. None of the big, surprising twists felt all that surprising, but I don't think that's the problem, either. The problem is that none of it felt real to me. And I don't mean the fact that amnesia just doesn't work that way. I was actually OK with that, after a line from a doctor about Christine's condition not fitting our current understanding of memory convinced me that the author wasn't proceeding from ignorance, but instead knowingly fudging the medical facts for the sake of the story. I was willing to go with that. It was everything else that bugged me. Stuff like the fact that Christine's doctor seems to have no patients but her to worry about and is free to spend big chunks of his work day dropping by her house and taking her on memory-jogging field trips.
But the biggest problem was Christine herself. She just never felt emotionally believable to me as someone going through the things she's going through. She talks a lot about her thoughts and feelings, but it all feels sort of... hollow. I'm not sure I ever really believed there was a person in there. And without any deep sense of empathy for her, I was more irritated by her than concerned about her. Which made it kind of hard for my nerves to get tingly for her.
Every morning Christine awakens with limited memories of her life.Sometimes she awakens thinking she is but a little girl in her childhood bedroom, other times maybe she's a teen. Sometimes she may see a man standing in her room and expect when he turns around she'll recognize her father. However the man in her room is always a stranger, and when she looks at herself in the mirror, she sees what she thinks is an old woman instead of a young girl.
Christine suffers from a rare form of amnesia, causing her to lose her memory while she sleeps at night (think Drew Barrymore in 50 First Dates). She awakens in the morning not knowing the man who sleeps beside her, or how she aged decades, or what has transpired during those decades.
Christine keeps a journal hidden away, documenting what happens each day, what she learns of her past. Then one day she takes out her journal and it warns her not to trust her husband. Now she begins to question everything. Who can be trusted? Are these people who they say they are?
My final word: I made a prediction on the second page of the story regarding how I thought it would end, and it turned out that I was essentially correct. However even though I knew where the book was going and my final destination, I kept reading to find out what kind of trip the author would take me on to get me there. It was interesting. Not fantastic writing, complex characters or breathtaking suspense, but an enjoyable enough fast read.
Christine Lucas wakes up every morning with no memory of what happened yesterday, or the day before, or in many of the previous years of her life. When she sleeps her memory is virtually erased. Keeping a diary helps. She leaves a note to herself to read the diary, and then every morning after the shock of looking in the mirror and seeing someone so much older than she is looking back, she reads the words written in her own handwriting. She manages to cope from day to day with the loving help of Ben, her devoted husband. Imagine her shock when she opens her diary one day and reads the words … "DON'T TRUST BEN".
Although this scenario has been explored in other books and movies, in every style from comedy to thriller this book absolutely holds its own. Christine's pain is tangible to the reader and we follow Christine side-by-side and step-by-step as she begins to unravel the mystery of her own diary. It's hard to say any more without posting a spoiler alert at the top of the review. Before I Go To Sleep is well worth the reading time if you want to find out any more. I loved this book and would definitely list it among my favorite reads of 2011.
Nice suspense thriller with a good plot twist. Lot's of people here are saying that they saw it coming from "way before". But I didn't. I feel satisfied with the plot overall and the ending too. Yes there were some plot loopholes no doubt but hey, most stories have a loophole. So I couldn't care much about the loophole. Overall awesome suspense this book! I was truly gripped into it.
I adore this book. It had sat on my bookshelf for ages, not something I ever thought I'd actually pick up and read, until a friend of mine spotted it and started raving about it. So I picked it up and literally couldnt put it down again. This is the book I will hold accountable for my regained love of reading. It is amazing.
I will say here that losing my memory is one of my biggest fears, and this book did absolutely nothing to make that fear any better.
It is a thriller in the truest sense of the word, the whole time you know somethings not quite right, you feel it in the pit of your stomach that something must be terribly wrong, but I for one didnt work it out until just before the reveal.
The protagonist's vulnerability means you become quite protective over her as you read, and that adds to the unnerving sense of something being off. You fear for her, you want everything to work out and for her to have her happy ending and of course to be cured. I've not known a book in so long to have me screaming at the pages, wanting her to listen "Don't go to sleep! Don't do it!"
The ending is satisfying, and open, so you can believe what you want about what happened to the characters.
Fantastic book. Five stars.
Good book! The ending was not at All what I expected. Really good!
Christine suffers from forms of amnesia and so, every time she goes to sleep at night, she loses her memory both of that day and of the last 20-30 years. Her husband, Ben, has to explain her life to her every morning. She is contacted by a doctor who suggests she records each day in a journal and she gradually begins to recover certain memories and to wonder why Ben only tells her, e.g. that she had a son, if she remembers it first.
I found the basic premise and the first third completely gripping. The middle third dragged a bit and then I began to put pieces together, although I didn't work out everything. A hopeful ending. It would make a good film.
BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP a strong debut by S. J. Watson--a psychological haunting suspense of one woman's confused mind, a debilitating illness----leaving her vulnerable, alone, and frightened--unsure whom she can trust.
Based in London, Christina awakens not knowing the stranger in her bed. Ben of course, tries to comfort, assuring her they have been married for over twenty years. She discovers she has amnesia and unable to remember past events or retain new memories. Basically when she falls asleep, all her memories are gone. Zap!
She is seeing a therapist, who has encouraged her to write in her journal, similar to patients with Alzheimer's or other brain disorders, in order to try and remember her thoughts or actions. However, she reads her words, "Do not trust Ben." She begins to question herself and everyone around her. Where are her friends? Why is Ben so controlling and protective? Is Ben the enemy or is someone else? An affair possibly, or maybe her therapist? What caused this condition? She desperately tries to remember, as she feels she is in danger. Can she trust her therapist and is someone out to get her?
OK, several things here: I am reading (listening to the audiobook, narrated by Orlagh Cassidy, after having read S.J. Watson's second book, The Second Life 6/5/2015. I liked the second a little better, but neither blew away--both drag; and not a huge fan of the narrator.
Also the reason for the lower rating, I just finished reading TURN OF MIND by Alice LaPlante,(surgeon/dementia/murder) THE BOOKSELLER by Cynthia Swanson (confused mind in between two lives); Paul Cleave's TRUST NO ONE 5 Stars + (crime writer, Alzheimer's), Lisa Genova's STILL ALICE (professor, Alzheimer's), and Maggie Barbieri's ONCE UPON A LIE (retired cop, father, Alzheimer's). Both Cleave and Barbieri add quite a bit of wit and humor, mixed with murder. Highly recommend, this list.
Before I Go to Sleep did not come close to the quality of the above; even though he does offer a nice twist; however, takes too long to arrive.
I am so in love with the Author's website design!
Months after finishing this I am still wondering about the lives of the characters after the story ended. The "villain" of the book is truly creepy and psychologically abusive. I anticipated the resolution but loved the story anyway.
Me siento contusa con respecto al libro en su totalidad .
Por un lado , me enganchó desde el principio , en ningún momento me resultó aburrido y la trama en si me pareció bastante original (originalmente como Memento , al menos ) . Incluso en los últimos capítulos me tenia tan atrapada que no podía parar de leer hasta descubrir la resolución ...
Y sin embargo ,
Entiendo que todos los finales son decepcionantes , que los desarrollos siempre parecen prometer mas de lo que cumplen - pero , aún así , aun conociendo los defectos usuales del genero , aún así seguía esperando mucho mas que el final dado ; alguna sorpresa , un poco mas de comprensión hacia las acciones de cada uno - mas que nada , en el ultimo capitulo , donde el final se da en explicaciones apuradas y de modo casi totalmente carente de emoción real .
Vale la pena leerlo a pesar de sus fallas . Es entretenido y mucho mas profundo que la mayoría de los thillers den género . No es acción x acción ni suspenso x suspenso nada mas : los personajes son interesantes (aunque algunos bidimensionales o meros vehículos de la trama) y cada capitulo es emocionante .
Interesting novel. I was strolling for a while through the bookshop, using my preferred method of selecting a new book: reading the first two paragraphs. :-) Before I Go To Sleep immediately grabbed my attention, and I wanted to read on. So I bought it.
I was very much entertained with the story, and never stopped trying to figure out what was going on. When finally the plot came to an end, at first I was disappointed that I got it right... but how incomplete my solution to the mystery was! Watson really left me sitting still for a while after finishing the last page, pondering over things like memories, life and love. I like that.
Well worth the read. Good thriller.
This is good. Nicely told, suspenseful, quite a few misdirections to keep you guessing. The most entertaining book I've read in a while.
Well I can honestly say that I really enjoyed reading this book and it had me hooked.
I had to find out what was going on. It had me guessing as to who the 'baddie' was so-to-speak right up until the end and I too like alot of people, i suppose, guessed wrong. I can also see why some people would not have liked it because the ending did in some ways seem a little too convenient,but I was not expecting it to turn out how it did. Even as I was reading it I kept changing my mind as to what had / was happening with her life and who if anyone she could trust.
I really made me think how awful it must be for someone to be in the same situation that this woman was in and also how much worse it must be for the loved ones around that person who have to live with it every day whilst the person with the actual affliction starts afresh every single day (which may actually be a blessing for them)
I guess the premise of this novel is widely known by now, but in a nutshell the narrator Christine wakes up every day with no idea who she is, having suffered a trauma some years before that affected her memory. Everything she learns during the day, she promptly forgets overnight. I had a computer like that once, and it was mighty annoying, but this is probably some way worse.
It must have been a challenge to write. Like Kate Atkinson's "Life after Life", there is a necessary element of repetitiveness about it, and I wondered how the author would deal with it. In the first chapter, we follow Christine as she wakes up, no idea where she is, and via a diary (that she initially doesn't know she has been keeping) finds out what is going on. Subsequently the waking up and being disoriented bit is dropped, to be assumed by the reader. As it should be, but as Christine reads her diary she feels less like the person who woke up with no memory, and more like someone who remembers everything. It was always going to work out that way, but it was hard to keep in mind that every day was like an individual lifetime to her. On the other hand, the author skilfully points out the implications of this medical condition that are not immediately obvious - the way it would be compounded by illness and infirmity. Having such a condition on the day of one's death. It was grim stuff.
Whatever my misgivings about some bits of it (and one passage towards the end about who had whose telephone number and who couldn't get in touch with who nearly made me lose the will to live), this is a story that demands to be read to the end, and has a good twist that some will guess, but I didn't.
You can read the synopsis for yourself, so I won't reiterate. I will say that this is a page turner! Not a book you can read while part of your brain is on vacation, so if you're looking for one of those, keep looking. This is a very thoughtful and complex story that requires you to pay attention to details--I love books like this! There are clues dropped throughout that will help the reader to figure out what is going on, but again, if you speed through, you will miss them completely.
Good thriller.
This book is a fast paced thriller with not much emphasis on the thriller. I found it very difficult to put down but I found that it really only classifies as a thriller towards the very end.
I can't even imagine how life for Christine. How you wake up every single day the same, thinking you are in your 20's with your whole life ahead of you and then with no idea who you are or who anyone else is, where you are, and with no memories of your life. I found it so sad that her whole life was stolen, she couldn't remember anything that happened. Her life was so alone, she had no parents, no friends, because what's the point of hanging out with people you won't remember the next day. And day after day her husband would tell her again and again, the events of her life.
After she starts keeping a journal, she finds so many discrepancies with what her husband is telling her from day to day. One story of her life one day can totally change the next time Ben tells it. And what happened to Adam? What event robbed her of everything?
While reading it, I am mentally telling Christine not to ever tell Ben about the journal or the things she's discovered as I just didn't trust him at all. She's so confused with all the lies she's been told, can she trust Ben, or Claire or dr Nash?
I did find the book a little repetitious which really can't be helped since every day for Christine is like "Groundhog Day" with the same thing over and over but sometimes it seemed the same thing was happening and there wasn't a lot of change in the events.
I had a few suspicions and this book had me flying through to the conclusion, I had to know. And as the end came, I still felt sad for Christine, and all she had lost that she can't ever regain.
But thriller or mystery or whatever, still a great book. I am curious to see the movie, I can see Colin Firth in the earlier portion of the book but I cannot picture him as the Ben of later in the book.

Emergency crews are busy battling a massive wildfire in the western US state of Idaho that has forced the evacuation of about 2,250 homes.
The fire raging across parched sagebrush, grasslands and pine forests near high-end developments in the SunValley area has consumed 41,000 hectares and destroyed one home and seven other buildings since lightning sparked it on August 7.
More than 1,000 firefighters were engaged in what fire officials called "a heavy air show" and ground assault in a drive to gain the upper hand over a blaze stoked by dry, hot weather and strong, gusting winds.
